Plenty, got 5 1/2 hours of it yesterday morning and feels like I've done nothing since except eat grapesSlowy wrote:So have you gott-en any sleep?Bg wrote:unless you're actually english, it'll always be a second language... no offense. Gotta is a fine word, the other gott-en is an abhorrent misplacement of sensibilities and is evidential of what is wrong with society in general.
With that I'm signing out and will see you on the dark side. Gotta get some sleep.

Re: Lotsa little coils
Seriously interested by this idea, especially with being able to wind the different coils to different numbers of turns and gauges, could be quite interesting!

Re: Lotsa little coils
I hope to do a frequency sweep shortly to calculate each coil's inductance and where the resonance peaks are. They sound quite bright while also having some nice bottom... end...jeremyb wrote:Seriously interested by this idea, especially with being able to wind the different coils to different numbers of turns and gauges, could be quite interesting!

Actually feel more like an idiot... chasing a unique sound the hard way... so much easier to put down some coins and say I ll have that thanks.Single coil wrote:Jvpp is a wizard

Re: Lotsa little coils
Yeah, but then there's no magic and you have substantially fewer coins.

Re: Lotsa little coils
This would be so easy to draw up in a program like eagle, to spit out suitable files for a fabbing house, if I wasn't so short on spare time I'd offer to do it for you. Let us know when you run out of your boards if you want it done...school holidays are good for me.

Re: Lotsa little coils
Now that is a fine offer Sir! I am still fine tuning the board layout wrt mounting options. Struggling a bit ATM... Hope to have sorted this weekend so I can get this blimmin guitar finished.Snarblinge wrote:This would be so easy to draw up in a program like eagle, to spit out suitable files for a fabbing house, if I wasn't so short on spare time I'd offer to do it for you.

Re: Lotsa little coils
Two weeks gone by with so little progress... Cutting slivers of ebony veneer for the pick up housing. I am struggling with the height adjustment part of the pickup project
I'll keep on telling me - it's all worth it, keep on going...
Need to drill the holes in the right place for the 'pole pieces' to come through

Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

Re: Lotsa little coils
Put toothpaste on the pole pieces then stick the cover on. Toothpaste will stick where the poles were and then you know just where to drill holes

Re: Lotsa little coils
Yes, definitely keep going!
I realisethat these are going into your hanbuilt guitar, so you're going to all of the extra effort with the timber surrounds etc. the rest of the guitar is really special, so the extra effort is well worth it.
